3. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA3 U.S. 2004 Policy First U.S. national policy was titled “U.S. GPS Policy” – 1996 U.S. Space-Based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Policy –Signed on 8 Dec 2004 –Recognized changing national and international scene since 1996 –Updated U.S. policy while retaining principles in previous policy

4. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA4 2004 Policy: Objectives Improve the performance of space-based PNT –Ensure civil services exceed, or are at least equivalent to, those of foreign civil space-based PNT services –Includes robust resistance to interference for civil, commercial, homeland security, and scientific users worldwide Provide space-based civil PNT services free of direct user fees on a continuous, worldwide basis –Civil, commercial, homeland security and scientific use Provide uninterrupted access to U.S. space-based PNT services for U.S./allied national security purposes

5. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA5 2004 Policy: Objectives (cont’d) Provide open, free access to information necessary to use these civil services Improve capabilities to deny hostile use of any space-based PNT services –Without unduly disrupting civil and commercial access Maintain the GPS as a component of multiple sectors of the U.S. Critical Infrastructure Ensure that foreign PNT systems are interoperable with GPS –Or, at a minimum, are compatible

6. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA6 2004 U.S. Policy Summary Demonstrates continued U.S. Government commitment to space-based PNT for all stakeholders Provides framework for public/private decision makers Improves ability to coordinate efforts across the various agencies of the U.S. Government Creates basis for meaningful dialogue between service providers and end users Promotes common standards for worldwide interoperability

7. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA7 Overview U.S. Space-Based PNT Policy Implementation Actions Summary

8. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA8 Established a stronger “National Space-Based PNT Executive Committee”; IGEB disestablished –Chaired by Deputy Secretaries of Defense and Transportation –Membership includes: State, Commerce, Homeland Security, JCS, and NASA –Supported by a new National Coordination Office National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT was established on 1 Nov 2005 –Director, Deputy Director, and staff from the Departments and Agencies Policy Implementation

11. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA11 National Coordination Office Facilitates information sharing, coordination, and issue resolution regarding space-based PNT across the U.S. Government Evaluates plans to modernize the U.S. space-based PNT infrastructure Conducts or oversees space-based PNT studies and analyses Represents the National Executive Committee –Within the US Government, as well as with the public sector and representatives of foreign governments

12. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA12 Policy Implementation (cont’d) Major efforts: 5-Year National Space-Based PNT Plan – NCO –Plan is in draft with FY08 program assessment in progress International Coordination and Cooperation – State –Accelerating bilateral and multilateral activities U.S. Space-Based PNT Advisory Board - NASA –Board established with membership being finalized –Will conduct studies and provide advice as directed by Executive Committee First meeting projected 22 Feb 07

13. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA13 Key Executive Committee Actions In 2006,Nat’l Executive Committee met 4 times –Next meeting on Spring 07 GPS Performance Standards – OSD/NII and AF –Publishing PPS standard; feasibility of SPS update Interference Detection and Mitigation Plan - DHS –Coordinate U.S. capabilities to detect and mitigate sources of interference to the GPS and its augmentations National Space-Based PNT Architecture –Led by DoD’s National Security Space Office and DOT’s Research and Innovative Technology Administration

14. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA14 Timing Precise timing and frequency are critical to business and industry –Time stamps for transactions –Telecommunications GPS is a major timing source across multiple critical infrastructures: –Banking and Finance, Emergency Services, Energy, Telecommunications, Transportation, Water

15. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA15 Timing—What we need to understand How critical to certain business functions Impact to critical infrastructure sectors Cascade effect—dependencies / interdependencies Reliance upon GPS Extent of backups

16. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA16 IDM—Next Steps DHS complete IDM DHS established an Executive Committee/Working Group –Develop IDM implementation strategy –Responsibilities include coordination of U.S. capabilities to identify, analyze, locate, attribute and mitigate sources of interference to GPS –Central repository for interference reports from all sources –Refresh of previous GPS vulnerability & timing criticality studies –Identify PNT requirements for homeland security purposes CAPT Curtis Dubay USCG/PNT W.G. Chair/202-372-2650

17. National Coordination Office for Space-Based PNT, USA17 PNT Architecture Requested by Executive Committee, OSD-NII, DOT Product – a 20 year strategic look to guide near and mid-term decisions on PNT capabilities Changing Landscape Strategic Vision Needed Current Status –Team familiarization with issues, process and data gathering –5 industry days held Oct/Nov - no participation to date from timing industry; seeking input –Next emphasis on Architecture Concepts and Analysis by Mar 2007 –Report and final coordination with stakeholders by Jul 2007 www.acq.osd.mil/nsso/pnt/pnt.htm POC’s: CAPT Jim Dalberg USN/NSSO/571-432-1402 Karen Van Dyke/DOT/617-494-2432
